NBPC - The Daydreamer

You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on the hidden treasures of life (the background) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the colors around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to ponder ideas and imagine the many possibilities of your life without worrying about the details or specifics. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You are a down-to-earth person who enjoys going with the flow.

Daydreamer? So not surprised. It's quite accurate in regards to comfort and energy in solitude, especially by the sea. Give me a sea and a nice sky and I'm happy. It's actually what I plan to do for my birthday this year - sit by the sea for the day, notepad, music, Irn Bru and I'll be set. I usually get melancholy to the extreme on my birthday - not so much about getting older, but other things. I've tried many different things over the past few years to combat the birthday blues - quiet family dinner, raucous night out, quiet night out, raucous night in etc etc but I'm feeling quite good about this plan and haven't actually told anyone yet, although I'm sure it'll be considered extremely sad. I just hope the weather's decent. As much as I like the rain, I don't fancy hanging out in the rain by the sea by myself.

The quiz is wrong in terms of 'going with the flow' and not paying attention to detail, but even a computer can't be right all the time. I see I missed the 'artist' criteria only by favouring background over foreground. That's just because I have a thing for seas and skies :)

I wrote a crack!fic in the wee hours of last night. It's not anything special, but I'll post it later. I see that 12,000 HP fans have petitioned to have the film moved back to November. I'd sign that on condition that the movie would indeed be finished to best of ability by November and that the move was entirely motivated by money (which is ridiculous because HBP is making millions and millions any time). However, if they want an extra couple months to edit, polish, tweak or maybe even reshoot some scenes then I'm cool with a Summer 09 release. As much as I have been looking forward to HBP, I don't want it to be an utter pile of crap when it comes out because IMO Yates needs every advantage he can get to compensate for his poor skills in this genre.

On other news, I have completely OD'd on football since the season's return. I even watched a game between Miami FC and the Carolina RailHawks in the USL first division at some stupid time in the morning over the internet on the Fox soccer channel. I'm telling you - I'm seriously ill.

Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random. Step 2: Post a line bit from the first 30 10 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song. (To be lazy and make it easier) Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess which song and artist the lines come from. Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly

I would say this is indicative of the crap that's on my winamp, but not necessarily my taste. I don't expect anyone to participate. This is because I'm restless, tired and bored.

1.That I can hardly wait / To hold you / Enfold you / Never enough / Render your heart to me

2.It's a new dawn / It's a new day / It's a new life / For me..Muse - Feelin' Good - belladancerela

3. We're gift-wrapped kitty cats / We're only turning into tigers when we gotta fight back / Let's go, Eskimo / Out into the blue

4. Like twisted vines that grow / That hide and swallow mansions whole / And dim the light of an already / Faded prima donna

5. We're losing control, will you turn me away/ Or touch me deep inside? / And if all this gets old, will it still feel the same? / There's no way this will die

6. No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue / I could not foresee this thing happening to you / If I look hard enough into the setting sun / My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

7. I thought I'd drown myself in you / Well I shook the honey glaze from my head / and I realised, yeah i realised / I'd do anything for you

8. He's become a a one-man rise in crime / I'd blame parents except he hasn't got 'em / Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat / Tell you all about it when I got the time

9. Sitting alone in the dark of a stadium / He whispers his secrets into a cheap guitar / With the flick of his wrist he turns words into melodies / Chords into church bells, fill up the allies / Lovers intwine in the heat of the night / And by dawn are apart in the shivering silences

10. I had a vision I could turn you right / a stupid mission and a lethal fight / I should have seen it when my hope was new / my heart is black and my body is blue

EDIT - Tried to post the badge several times but it just won't go. I think there's somethng wrong with the coding and my entire extensive html bank of knowledge from yeas ago at school has failed me. So the link is here. Fun quiz. Just don't expect to get a badge. Man http://mingle2.com/zombie-quiz

Got 49% likely to survive a Zombie Apocalype. Pfft. Woulda done better if i owned/fired a gun/lived in the US.

V cool that I found this quiz as this subject has been part of much heated debate at work. No really. Someone said our pub would be the ideal place to hole up in event of a Zombie uprising cause of all the beer and food. Which is completely dumb as there are too many fricking entrances. Fortifying them all well and solidly would take too long. Big windows... It's just not logical. No. Zombies would eat your brains if you stayed there.

So I've got less than 50% chance according to this. Meh. I could kick Zombie ass.

As long as they're slow and stupid. Those are my favourite kind.

Also, trying to upload this amazing Addison mood theme. But is a long and slow process. Also writing comment-fic for truelovepooh which is helping break through the block. And also just watched season finale of brothers and sisters. Really enjoyed the 1st season - loved most of the actors/writers from other shows. (Nice to see Ron Rifkin again). Only problem is that it's entirely unfemmeslashable (except maybe Nora/Holly???). They're all family. And I'm just not that kind of writer.
